THIS IS WHY!!!! WE CALL!!! GREAT JOB EVERYONE 🩷 KOSA did pass the house but remember the senate has a conflicting version. Keep calling, it matters!
SCREEN Act, which would have required mandatory age-verification for sites (like this) that allow "material harmful to minors" failed to pass out of committee after thousands and thousands of people called their Senators. More work ahead!
Today is the day the story There Will Come Soft Rain is set. An amazing and heartbreaking work of fiction for our modern age. Read it here:
What can you do? CALL. WRITE. SCREAM. The bill is up for a vote THIS WEDNESDAY. Call your Senator. Dem. Republican. Whomever. Right now, it's a solid R bill, but they're looking for Dems to take it across the finish line. Let them know how badly it stinks. www.defendonlineprivacy.com/screen/

a small update : health remains dreadful but work continues in quiet — after all, maintaining life on the threshhold is expensive. and the queue is meditative, besides. a new commission type will be opening this friday, august 7. more information to come.
Impeccably uncanny homie Morgan Carroll has released a new Bloodborne comic that of course obsesses me. A reflection on one of my favorite themes through the weirdest, saddest, scariest and most poignant character ever created, with exquisite sensibility. To die for. emcarroll.itch.io/milkweed

The TOS being so strict that they control you offsite is the problem; sites like Patreon and Kofi have offsite clauses too. The social criminalization of the suggestion that somewhere you might be doing nsfw is a problem. It's branding a person as obscene and we need consumers to stand up for us
